They have a gluten free pasta option which I love! The staff is super friendly and food is good!! Right in the heart of downtown San Mateo so there's plenty to do after if you want a night out afterwards and is a great family restaurant as well

Their gluten free pasta was the best I’ve ever had!🤤 The texture is very similar to regular pasta, al dente. I have been craving it daily since I dined there.

Delicious pizza and salad, and they were very accommodating to our dietary restrictions! Gluten free menu had a nice selection, and they also offer vegan cheese for those who are lactose sensitive! Service was fast and very pleasant.

We dined outside at Pinstripes after seeing a movie. Our server was knowledgeable, efficient and so friendly. She really took time to speak with the chef about my allergies, and they came up with gluten-free and allergy-free choices! All 4 of us loved our meals. We'll be back!

I ordered a personal cheese pizza which was served to me so hot and fresh. The gluten crust was one of the best I've had. Their prices are amazing, and the food is always served fresh. The employees are very friendly. The classic salad is amazing too. I love Mr Pizza san mateo!

If you're in San Mateo and craving some authentic Mediterranean flavors, Tastee Grill is a must-visit! Their falafels are a delightful blend of crispy and tender, perfectly spiced and even gluten-free! The menu boasts an array of vegan options too. The Sauteed Eggplant is cooked to perfection, and the Sauteed Mushroom side is a umami-packed delight. Don't skip the Sauteed Cauliflower; it's a deliciously seasoned, healthy treat. Their Small Tabouli Salad is fresh, with the perfect balance of parsley, tomatoes, and bulgur. And their Lentil Soup, available in multiple sizes, is hearty and comforting. Everything is affordably priced and the portions are generous. Tastee Grill in San Mateo is the place for fresh, flavorful, and authentic Mediterranean dishes. A five-star experience! #SanMateoEats #MediterraneanDining #TasteeGrill #FalafelLove #VeganOptions #GlutenFree #HealthyEating #FlavorfulMediterranean #SanMateoRestaurants #DineLocal #GoogleLocalGuide
